   Question

   You can find below the regression equation of a bivariate regression.

   Y = a + b₁ * X₁ 

   What does “b” represent in this equation?

   
   
   1. FALSE: This is the significance level ‘alpha’ and it typically takes the value 0.05.
   2. FALSE: This is the slope and takes the value 0 when X₁ has no effect on Y.
   3. FALSE: This is the slope and represents the predicted Y if X₁  equals 0.
   4. TRUE: This is the slope and represents the predicted change in Y  if X₁  increases with 1 unit.
   
   
   1. False
   2. False
   3. False
   4. True
